796 The Awesome Flying Castle - Part 1
I got my chariot, but by no means it was enough to carry an army of soldiers. I once had an army of illusionists that I didn’t even think about tracking their whereabouts for a long time now!
The trouble of bringing them around was big enough to make me drop using them. Besides, they weren’t that good to begin with.
If I had my castle with me, then I could solve this problem… Partially.
After all, the speed of movement of this big baby was really rivalling a snail!
“Come inside!” as I got it, it was time for me to move it into my inventory and deprive the enemy of such a strong asset.
However, what happened next shocked me!
I thought when I’d recall it, all the forces on its back would fall to the ground. Such a fall from such height would kill anyone, no matter who!
Without using treasures and items to fly or reduce the impact of the fall, none of them would survive, or should.
However what happened was for the collosal castle to vanish alongside the soldiers inside it. I blinked twice, scanned the gap created by the castle’s disappearance, but I couldn’t find a single troop falling.
What the heck just happened?
I opened my inventory and there found the castle lying quietly there. However, there was a lustre of red colour surrounding it, giving it a special feeling.
Out of curiosity and lack of understanding of what was going on here, I opened the description window of this item.
And a long window popped up in front of my eyes.
[The Fearful Castle: Heaven grade artefact. Belongs to King Hye of the human race. Can’t be dropped except by killing the king by another king.
Previous owners: King Malak of the Sorceity race. King Grendo of the angelic race. King Silvador of the Hector race.
It’s a living type of artefact, one who feeds on the death energy created from killing any enemy with forces on top of it, or by using its weapons and abilities.
The current death energy stored: Ten thousand units.
The castle can work as a separate world where it will apply to any special abilities of its owner.
The current special ability detected by King Hye of the human race: Time manipulation.
The king has all the power to regulate the time manipulation as he wants, with minimum time difference 1:2 with the real world as the passive effect granted without paying any price, and 1:100 with the real world with paying the highest price.
The castle weapons:
Towers and turrets are free to use if you have forces. If not, to automatically activate them to attack any hostile forces to you, you’ll need to pay one hundred thousand death units per day.
The offensive siege weapons can be freely used if you have forces. If not, to automatically activate them to attack any hostile forces to you, you’ll need to pay one hundred thousand death units per day.
The central castle is the heart of the Fearful Castle. It controls the defensive shield. The shield can be passively activated without any price, or you can pay one hundred thousand death units per day to activate the intermediate might of the shield, or pay five hundred thousand death units for activating the supreme form of the shield.
The central caste can use rays to pick up troops belonging to you from the ground passively, with the capacity of one thousand per minute. Or you can pay fifty thousand death units to let the rays pick ten thousand forces per minute, or you can pay two hundred thousand death units for the rays to pick up one hundred thousand units per minute. The effect will last for a day.
The central castle has the Fearful Axe, an artefact of man grade. It can be activated by paying two hundred thousand death units, forming a mighty axe of energy, hovering on top of the castle and will last for one hour. The king can control it mentally and wave it to attack once per five minutes.
The king can pay one million death units and the axe can last for six hours, and be used once per two minutes.
The central castle has the supreme silence pulse cannon wave weapon. It can be activated by paying ten million death units to be activated once to silence the entire enemy forces for an entire hour in a distance covering one hundred miles radius.
The Fearful Castle has the following abilities that are based and tailored on the current king’s time manipulation ability:
-Time manipulation ability at the closed world of the castle: Can be used while the castle is stored inside the king’s inventory, or can be halved when used at the real world where it’s summoned in a world where the king is.
The passive time manipulation effect is 1:2 of the real world time.
Paying daily one thousand death units or monthly ten thousand death units will increase this ratio as 1: 10, 1: 15, 1: 20, all the way up until it hits the upper limit.
The price for activating the highest time manipulation effect, 1: 100 is one million daily death units or twenty million monthly.
The range of effect is limited to the castle region when stored, ten miles around it when it is in the outside world. The king can pay ten thousand death units daily or one hundred thousand death units monthly to increase this range by a hundred miles each time.
-Legs In Sand ability: The king can specify an area of five miles radius and affect all the enemy forces thereby a time reduction effect. Paying ten thousand death units will get this ability activated for one hour. The king can pay extra ten thousand death units to expand this area by ten miles, or gain the ability to control the area and move it around, or even both by paying fifteen thousand death units…]
